Subject: Next Week...
   I just wanted to give everyone an update that more than likely, by the middle of next week, we'll have the talent calculator ready to preview the changes being made to the priest talents for patch 1.10.

We focused primarily on the Holy and Discipline trees, however, we did visit the Shadow tree as well (no, that doesn't mean nerf - so don't troll my post). I had already commented that the focus of Holy would be in providing throughput improvement, that Discipline would focus on staying-power and that Shadow would focus primarily on damage. I believe this statement caused a slight bit of confusion, and I wish to make two points of clarification.

First, this has always been the case. This isn't a new direction for these trees.

Second, don't overanalyze "focus". All talent trees (for all classes) have a focus. The focus of a tree isn't necessarily all it has to offer. For instance, just because I stated the focus of Holy was in throughput improvement, doesn't mean you wont find staying-power or damage. One of our goals in streamlining the priest talents was to ensure that the class was viable in both PvE and PvP, despite a given build. Granted, certain builds are always going to be optimal for certain avenues of the game, as such is what occurs when you specialize your character.

But I ramble...

The changes look good, and I'm fairly excited to see your reaction when they are unveiled, although I don't expect the best feedback to come until the PTRs are live. In any case, /cheers - to priests. ;)

Q u o t e:
If you reveal anything, please let it be that there is no holy form, so people can stop suggesting it.

Please? You know I've never asked any CM's for anything.

Please tell everyone there is not holy form.


There is no Holy Form.

Q u o t e:
Straightforward? I dont think hes yet to give us any information to mislead us. Its everyone else who picks apart his statements as if hes dropping cryptic hints. Some of you people scare me with your conspiracy theorys.


/agreed

I may be a little sharp when expressing myself from time to time, but I don't create messages with the intent to mislead players, however, since it's still a topic, I'll elaborate...

There is currently no counterpart to ShadowForm in the game.
There is currently no plans to implement a counterpart to ShadowForm in the next patch.
There is currently no plans to implement a counterpart to ShadowForm in any future patch.
There is currently no plans to implement an ability known as Holy Form.
There is currently no plans to implement an ability similar to what players are describing as a Holy Form.

Q u o t e:
Eyonix I request that you clarify weather holyform, or any similar spell be it form or otherwise, will be implemented in patch 1.10. However I feel nomatter what you say, short of posting a legally norotized document, that someone will think you are trying to mislead them. The truth is out there.
